Abstract

An illumination system for motor vehicles, which contains both parking/daytime running lights of one color and turn signal lights of another color. The invention detects whether parking lights are being displayed and, if so, flashes a parking light alternately with its adjacent turn signal light, rather than constantly illuminating the parking light while flashing the adjacent turn signal light.
